drained

I can't believe that I'm still so tired - I had a decent amount of sleep last night, but I felt so weak and dizzy this morning I stayed home from work and slept the rest of the morning, and now I'm tired again! Still, I got to sit out on the patio in the warm and watch the cats play in the agapanthus and the bees gathering pollen - I love my garden, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else on a sunny day.

I've started crocheting some boring old hats again - at least I'm producing something and it's easy for me to do at the moment. I hope I get some energy back soon. I know I should be eating better and doing some exercise, but everything just seems too hard at present. I feel kinda like I'm depressed, but I'm not unhappy - I think it's just because everything's in stasis in my mind until I know my pregnancy is going to be okay.

Enjoy being pregnant, being tired is a sign that everything IS normal. You have to let go and trust the process because there are no guarantees - so enjoy every day - and take things slow and easy on those days when you feel tired. :)

I am sorry you aren't feeling well. Try to give in and listen to your body and not feel guilty if you can. I have a chronic illness and it was hard for me to do this at first, but you just have to. If you feel you have to rest, just do it and don't feel bad about it. Take care of yourself first. And it is ok to be upset about how you are feeling no matter what anyone said. I hope it gets better for you soon...I have heard ginger teat (the natural kind) is very good for nausea.
